Stanley Plaza

For that tailored, luxury experience, Adelaide dog-owners have Burnside. And here, Hong Kong dog-owners have Stanley.

Stanley Plaza and the Stanley Markets are located on the south side of Hong Kong Island, and apart from being a very pretty, very clean, semi-outdoor shopping mall, it is unique in its special attention to its canine shoppers.

Exhibit 1: The sign above the entrance to the mall

Exhibit 2: Doggie ice-cream with a conscience

Exhibit 3: Dog Parking (possibly not-so-eloquently translated, but considerate nevertheless)

Exhibit 4: Human and Canine cafe

Note that it is a really REALLY big shopping mall, with a separate plaza area and market area (the latter I didn't even have time to explore), and that only a fraction of the shops are dog-related. But its a bit like when you see a chunky powder-blue Toyota Camry driving down Rundle St, and then you really notice chunky powder-blue cars everywhere...
